I Love It When
Daniel Kallman
"I love it when the robin awakes me, singing her song to welcome the day;
I love it when the breezes blow gently making the trees and the green meadows sway.
Oh, cherish the earth so the bees still dance on the flowers in Spring;
Oh leave me a world where all creation in harmony sings.
I love it when the river runs freely, down from the mountains and out to the sea; I love it when the snow falls softly, covering all the world I see.
Oh cherish the earth so the spiders still spin in the morning dew; Oh, leave me a world so my children and their children can love it too.
I love it when the sun sets slowly, bathing the sky in wonderful light; And when the moon shines in through my window, I love it when you kiss me goodnight."
These were the lyrics to one of the songs the Honors Choir sang on Sunday at Rhi's concert. I feel in love with these lyrics. Maybe not so much the part about the snow...;) Why the robins just woke me this morning so this song is very fitting! Rhi continued her tradition of making May baskets for her friends. It will be the last year to make some for Maya and Rayna :(.
Thinking of my friend Heather today. Missing her.
